Description

This has been happening since 3.6.something, still present in 3.7.1 and 3.7.2. This is on Win32 -- I don't think I've experienced this on Linux yet.

This appears to be reproducible with every FLAC I have. I don't know if there's a way to work around it (ie, disable the mouse-over overlay?) -- but it would be great if there is, until someone can fix it. If you need a track to test with, let me know -- but it does seem to be all FLACs.

A possible workaround would be to disable the FLAC plugin.

What version of Windows is this?

#2 Updated by Davyd McColl over 8 years ago

This is Windows 10, 64-bit.

Disabling FLAC isn't a great workaround for me as I have tracks I'd like to listen to in FLAC format.

Oddly enough, this just stopped happening for me now. Since I can't reliably reproduce the issue any more, I guess this ticket can be closed.

#3 Updated by Davyd McColl over 8 years ago

Oh, never mind; it's back.

Now, I can't start up Audacious because of the same crash (last song played was a flac). Here's the trace from the windows event log:

(I know I can work around by clearing my default playlist)

They will still play since FFmpeg supports FLAC, only you won't see album art or be able to edit tags.

I've tried to reproduce this with Audacious 3.7, and for me it's rock-solid on both Windows 7 (64-bit) and Windows 10 (32-bit).

#7 Updated by Davyd McColl over 8 years ago

Yeah, and it stopped happening for me too, with the same tracks, same machine; thought it was predictably reproducable for a while. There's something fishy happening here and I'm afraid I'm not being particularly useful ):

#8 Updated by John Lindgren over 8 years ago

So I tried a bit more and was able to reproduce a crash (though not consistently) on the 32-bit Windows 10 installation. Rebuilding libFLAC with --disable-asm-optimizations seemed to fix it. Try this version of the .dll for a while and see if it helps on your machine as well.

Thanks! I will. I'll report back in his it goes (:

#10 Updated by Davyd McColl over 8 years ago

So far, so good. A preliminary test gives no issues (: Thanks for the time and effort taken to work around this (:
